Anyone remember the "Grandma Jolly" children's storyline in Waco in the 80s?

I think the number was 776-5555. You could call in and get a different children's story every day.

Apparently Grandma Jolly died last year.

Dammit....this was actually a big part of my childhood that only folks from this area would get.
